Elk Island

Summary

Elk Island is a public 9-hole golf course in Fort Saskatchewan, Alberta, Canada, within the broader Canada West golf landscape. The course follows a tropical layout, a style commonly associated with lush vegetation, warm-climate turf, water features, and more humid coastal or island playing conditions. It is attributed to Stanley Thompson and traces its origins to 1936, details that place the property within an earlier generation of American course design and give it a profile consistent with many long-established courses of the same era.
